Majestic birds Ken. Good curved perch, and I like the symmetrical poses from the two fish eagles. I would maybe come in from the right, to just outside the vertical part of the perch. Great sighting.

Sweet image, Ken. Love the sharpness and colors of this image. I am betting that you could open up the darks on the left bird (as viewed) just a bit.

Nice perch tree, pair, and EXP. I like the parallel head angles too. Id the female on our right?

Very nice to have captured the two birds and great that head angles are identical.

Thanks for the comments, Rhino Island is my best bet for Fish Eagles, no baiting just natural behaviour.

Artie,

I cannot really help in ID, all I can say is that usually the female is larger, which does not help a lot here.:confused:
